“Cultivate  a kindly  feeling  and  don’t  snarl 
U7  or  grouch”  may  save  a man  his  job,  etc. 

It  doesn’t  require  a librarian  to  say  these 
> things,  however.  The  library  attendant 
finds  out  what  the  man  needs  to  know,  and 
tells  him  where  to  find  it;  looks  up  useful 
information  for  him;  some  day  the  office 
will  wake  up  to  the  fact  that  the  librarian 
can  tell  them  things  they  need  to  know;  the 
librarian  can  compile  from  Brown’s  Direc- 


tory of  American  Gas  Companies,  alone,  in- 
formation that  will  be  of  great  value  to  the 
company,  and  the  same  holds  with  reports, 
decisions,  records  and  publications.  This 
somewhat  rambling  appeal  for  the  develop- 
ment of  the  works  library  deserves  serious 
thought.  It  is  one  way  in  which  the  ex- 
perience of  others  can  be  utilized  to  our 
own  advantage. 


A List  of  Periodical  Publications  Relating 
to  Municipal  Affairs 

Compiled  by  Mabel  L.  Conat,  First  Assistant,  Reference  Department,  Public  Library, 

Detroit,  Mich.* 


In  issuing  this  list,  no  claim  is  made  that 
it  is  complete.  A number  of  periodicals  of 
little  apparent  value  and  no  longer  current 
have  been  omitted.  Further  it  is  not 
claimed  that  all  municipal  periodicals  which 
are  current  have  been  included,  especially 
in  the  case  of  local  official  gazettes.  Many 
cities,  particularly  those  under  commission 
government,  are  publishing  periodical  rec- 
ords of  their  work,  and  to  obtain  a complete 
list  of  these  publications  would  be  almost 
impossible  as  the  number  is  constantly 
changing.  It  was  at  first  planned  to  exclude 
all  annual  publications,  but  since  it  was 
later  felt  that  no  list  of  municipal  periodic- 
als would  be  sufficiently  comprehensive  with 
these  omitted,  it  was  thought  best  to  add 
a short  list  including  only  the  more  import- 
ant annual  publications. 

It  is  extremely  difficult  to  arrive  at  a 
satisfactory  scheme  of  classification  for  a 
list  of  this  sort,  because  the  tendency  of 
the  periodicals  is  to  overlap  in  purpose  and 
to  include  subject  matter  not  distinctly 
within  their  prescribed  fields.  Much  as- 
sistance has  been  gained  from  the  study  of 
the  lists  previously  published**  and  the  clas- 
sification followed  here  is  a modification  of 
that  used  by  Mr.  J.  B.  Kaiser.  * * The  clas- 
sification is  based  upon  the  scope  of  the 
periodicals  as  nearly  as  that  could  be  de- 
termined, although  many  of  the  periodicals,

because  of  their  diversified  subject  matter, 
might  easily  be  included  in  more  than  one 
group. 

As  far  as  it  could  be  obtained,  informa- 
tion has  been  given  upon  the  following 
points:  frequency,  date  of  first  issue  and 
place  of  publication.  In  many  cases,  when 
the  date  of  first  issue  could  not  be  deter- 
mined with  any  degree  of  accuracy,  the 
volume  number  and  date  of  the  earliest 
numbers  in  the  University  of  Illinois  Li- 
brary have  been  stated  in  order  to  give 
some  idea  of  the  age  of  the  periodical.  For 
many  of  the  official  gazettes,  when  the  date 
of  the  first  issue  could  not  be  secured  first 
hand,  the  dates  given  in  Checklist  of  news- 
papers and  official  gazettes  in  the  New  York

marized form,  or  regularly  at  definitely  pre- 
scribed intervals  (as  weekly,  monthly,  etc.)  and

LL.B.,  Professor  of  Municipal  Government 
in  Harvard  University.  (8vo.  Law  Buck- 
ram. 472  pp.  $2.50  net.)  It  is  a classified 
list  of  the  best  materials  available  for  study 
in  every  branch  of  municipal  affairs.  Par- 
ticular attention  is  given  to  official  reports, 


and  to  authoritative  articles  in  scientific 
periodicals  on  such  matters  as  water  supply, 
sanitation,  public  lighting,  street  railways, 
and  so  forth.  By  far  the  larger  part  of  the 
references  are  to  publications  which  have 
appeared  within  the  last  twelve  or  fifteen 
years.  Great  care  has  been  taken  to  ar- 
range the  materials  so  that  they  may  be 
easily  found,  and  many  of  the  citations  have 
critical  notes.  An  elaborate  author-and- 
subject  index  is  appended.

SPECIAL  LIBRARIES 


The  volume  contains  five  thousand  titles 
which  are  carefully  classified  into  chapters, 
sections,  and  sub-sections.  The  field  of  mu- 
nicipal government  has  been  viewed  in  a 
broad  way  as  including  all  the  activities  of 
the  city,  whether  political,  administrative, 
social,  or  economic.  Nothing  has  been  in- 
cluded, however,  which  does  not,  with  the 
widening  social  horizon  of  today,  concern 
the  student  of  municipal  affairs  as  such. 

The  lists  are  comprehensive  but  discrimi- 
nating; they  do  not  aim  to  include  all  that 
has  been  written  on  the  subject  of  munici- 
pal government  in  this  country,  but  only 
those  things  which  are  of  present-day  inter- 
est and  of  permanent  value. 

In  a word  the  Bibliography  is  one  to  which 
the  teacher  or  student  of  municipal  govern- 
ment, the  city  official,  and.  the  general  read- 
er may  turn  with  reasonable  assurance  of 
being  started  on  the  right  road  to  what  he 
wants.  The  broad  scope  of  the  book  may  be 
judged  from  its  table  of  contents:
